Pink Flashing - is my graphics card too powerful for the sims?

Recently I got a new pc that includes a RTX 2080Ti (11gbs), 32 gbs of ram and Intel i7-8700k 3.7Ghz. I downloaded the sims 2 straight away and put the graphics rule fix in my game and when I loaded it up sims, hood decorations and furniture and build mode objects were flashing pink (everything apart from 'hood terrain, roads and water) I also put a help post on modthesims a couple of days ago and people were helping me straight away and when I tried everything (4gb patch, allocation memory fix, graphics rule maker, reinstalling the game, deleting thumbnails, deleting caches, changing resolution, changing 'BoolProp EnableDriverMemoryManger False' to true) the flashing pink glitch was still occuring. The gameplay is fine and runs well for some reason and I am confused. I know this is a texture problem (obviously) and it is frustrating to be honest. I've seen some forums on this website and modthesims that people with higher graphics cards (nvidia 10x0) have the same problem as I do on windows 10. I do not have custom content in my game and this occurs straight away when I download the game. I have reinstalled the game about 4 times now and I really need some help, any help would be appreciated.

You can set an individual game to run on the integrated graphics through the nVidia control panel, IF you have an integrated graphics chipset. You'll have to go around and reset your *.sgr files for integrated graphics use.

Unless you have LESS than HD4400 graphics, and an i5 processor, and no SSD, there is NO REAL ADVANTAGE to running Sims 2 on nVidia graphics. Sims 2 was designed to run on OLDER hardware, and it doesn't like the newer hardware.

Unless you have less than Intel HD-4400 graphics, there's no reason to put yourself through the trouble of trying to run Sims 2, on your nVidia, or Radeon chipset. Actually, the integrated chipset sometimes runs Sims better than the nVidia, or Radeon.

I have nVidia GT730m, and HD4600 graphics on my computer. I run sims 2 on the HD 4600, as it's more trouble than it's worth, trying to run Sims on the nVidia graphics.

IF you have both nVidia, AND HD graphics, you can remove your nVidia graphics drivers through Device Management, install The Sims 2 while just on HD graphics, set your game up to run properly with HD graphics, then re-install your nVidia graphics drivers afterwards. This is kind of drastic, and requires you to download the proper nVidia drivers for re-installation before doing this, but it works. This works ONLY with laptops, and desktop systems that can run both the nVidia, AND HD graphics at the same time. Most laptops with dual video, can be done in this manner.

Yeah I have switched my graphics to the integrated graphics card and it works just as fine but I am sad that I can't use my nvidia card but it is whatever, thank you and Lee for helping me out I really appreciate it <3
